Analysis:
Under David Warner, the Delhi Capitals have completely seemed out of sorts. The DC batting, barring Warner, has failed to fire and score runs at a consistent clip. Similarly in the bowling lineup, Kuldeep Yadav and Anrich Nortje have put in some solid performances. The biggest positive for DC has been the evolution of Axar Patel, who has been contributing to each department.
Whereas the Kolkata Knight Riders, after their miraculous win over Gujarat Titans have suffered two back-to-back defeats. In each of those matches, one department has failed to perform. Venkatesh Iyer, after his poor 2022 season, has found his form back. While with the ball, Varun Chakravarthy has been among the top performers for KKR.
